Geography

Taskenia is located in the south of the mainland. It consists of mostly wide open plains, and it boasts the largest forest in The Summoned Realms, even bigger than Chak Shal. The land is dotted with magical anomalies like The Frostfinger Desert on Taskenia's southern tip. Only a few mountains and hills exist in Taskenia and it is mostly flat, so travelers can see for many miles.
